17~18% 대역의 고효율 결정질실리콘 태양전지를 양산하기 위하여 국내외에서 다양한 연구개발이 수행되고 있으며 국내 다결정실리콘 태양전지 양산에서도 새로운 구조와 개념에 입각한 공정기술과 관련 장비의 국산화에 집중적인 투자를 진행하고 있다. 주지하는 바와 같이, 태양전지의 광전효율은 표면에 입사되는 태양광의 반사를 제외하면 흡수된 광자에 의해 생성되는 전자-정공쌍의 상대적인 비율인 내부양자효율에 의존하게 된다. 실제 생성된 전자-정공쌍은 기판재료의 결정상태와 전기광학적 물성 등에 의해 일부가 재결합되어 2차적인 광자의 생성이나 열로서 작용하고 최종적으로 전자와 정공이 완전히 분리되고 전극에 포집되어 실질적인 유효전류로 작용한다. 16% 이상의 고효율 결정질 실리콘 태양전지 양산이 요구되고 있는 현실에서 광전효율 개선 위해 가장 우선적으로 고려되어야 할 변수는 입력 태양광스펙트럼에 대한 결정질 실리콘 표면반사율을 최소화하여 광흡수를 극대화하는 것이라 할 수 있다. 현재까지 다결정 실리콘 표면을 화학적으로 혹은 플라즈마이온으로 50-100nm 직경의 바늘형 피라미드형상으로 texturing 함으로 단파장대역에서 광반사율의 감소를 기대할 수 있기 때문에 결정질실리콘 태양전지효율 개선에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 고효율 다결정실리콘 태양전지 양산공정에 적용하기 위해 마스크를 사용하지 않는, RIE기반 건식 저반사율 결정질실리콘 표면 texturing 패턴연구를 수행하였다. 마스크없이 표면 texturing이 완료된 시료들에 대하여 A1.5G 표준태양광스펙트럼의 300-1100nm 파장대역에서 반사율과 minority carrier들의 life time 분포를 측정하고 검토하여 공정조건을 최적화 하였다. 저반사율의 건식 결정질실리콘 표면 texturing에 가장 적합한 플라즈마파워는 100W 내외로 낮았고 $SF_6/O_2$ 혼합비율은 0.8~0.9 범위엿다. 본 연구에서 확인된 최적의 texturing을 위한 플라즈마공정 조건은 이온에 의한 Si표면원자들의 스퍼터링과 화학반응에 의한 증착이 교차하는 상태로서 확인된 최저 평균반사율은 ~14% 내외였고 p-형 결정질실리콘 표면 texturing 패턴과 minority carrier의 life time 상관는 단결정이 16uS대역에서 14uS대역으로 감소하는 반면에서 다결정은 1.6uS대역에서 1.7uS대역으로 오히려 미세한 증가를 보여 다결정 웨이퍼생산과정에서 발생하는 saw-damage 제거의 긍정적 효과와 texturing공정의 표면 결함발생에 의한 부정적 효과가 상쇄되어 큰 변화를 보이지 않는 것으로 해석된다.

This study performs a daily long-term runoff analysis for 30 years to forecast medium- and long-term probabilistic reservoir inflows on the Soyang River basin. Snowmelt is computed by Anderson's temperature index snowmelt model and potenetial evaporation is estimated by Penman-combination method to produce input data for a rainfall-runoff model. A semi-distributed TOPMODEL which is composed of hydrologic rainfall-runoff process on the headwater-catchment scale based on the original TOPMODEL and a hydraulic flow routing model to route the catchment outflows using by kinematic wave scheme is used in this study It can be observed that the time variations of the computed snowmelt and potential evaporation are well agreed with indirect observed data such as maximum snow depth and small pan evaporation. Model parameters are calibrated with low-flow(1979), medium-flow(1999), and high-flow(1990) rainfall-runoff events. In the model evaluation, relative volumetric error and correlation coefficient between observed and computed flows are computed to 5.64% and 0.91, respectively. Also, the relative volumetric errors decrease to 17% and 4% during March and April with or without the snowmelt model. It is concluded that the semi-distributed TOPMODEL has well performance and the snowmelt effects for the long-term runoff computation are important on the study area.

형광체를 조명과 디스플레이 산업에 응용하기 위해서는 충분히 밝은 빛을 제공하는 형광체의 발광 세기가 중요한 변수이다. 이러한 발광 특성은 주로 모체 격자에 도핑 되는 활성제의 농도, 입자의 형상과 크기 분포의 균일성, 결정성에 따라 달라진다. 본 연구에서는 Ca2SiO4 모체 결정에 도핑한 활성제 Eu3+와 Dy3+ 이온의 농도를 변화시키면서 고상 반응법을 사용하여 높은 발광 효율을 갖는 Ca2-1.5xSiO4::Eux3+ 적색 형광체와 Ca2-1.5xSiO4:Dyx3+ 백색 형광체를 합성하였다. 특히, 활성제 Eu3+와 Dy3+ 이온 농도의 변화가 형광체의 결정 구조, 소성 온도, 입자의 표면 형상, 광학 스펙트럼의 발광 효율에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 최적의 합성 조건을 결정하였으며, 회절 신호의 반치폭과 발광 세기의 상호 관계를 조사하였다. Ca2-1.5xSiO4::Eux3+와 Ca2-1.5xSiO4:Dyx3+ 형광체 초기 분말 시료는 CaO (99.9% 순도), SiO2 (99.9%), Dy2O3 (99.9%)와 Eu2O3 (99.9%)인 화학 물질을 구입하여 초정밀 저울로 화학양론적으로 측정하였다. 이때 Eu와 Dy의 함량비는 x=0, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2 mol로 변화 시키면서 합성하였다. Ca2-1.5xSiO4: Dyx3+ 형광체 분말 시료의 경우에 소결 온도를 각각 $1000^{\circ}C$와 $1100^{\circ}C$로 달리하여 흡광과 발광 스펙트럼의 세기를 비교해 본 결과, 서로 다른 두 소결 온도에서 합성한 두 형광체 분말은 동일하게 Dy3+의 몰 비가 0.05 mol일 때 주 발광 스펙트럼의 세기는 최대값을 나타내었다. 파장 355 nm로 여기시킨 Dy3+ 함량비에 따른 Ca2-1.5xSiO4:Dyx3+ 형광체 분말의 발광 스펙트럼은 Dy3+ 함량비에 관계 없이 581 nm에서 가장 강한 황색 발광을 보였다. 함량비가 증가함에 따라 발광 스펙트럼의 변화가 관측되었는데, Dy3+의 몰 비가 0.01 mol~0.05 mol인 영역에서는 발광 세기가 증가하여 0.05 mol에서 최대를 나타내다가 Dy3+의 몰 비가 더욱 증가함에 따라 발광세기는 현저히 감소하는 경향을 나타내었는데, 이 현상은 농도 소광 현상으로 해석 할 수 있다. 이외에도, Eu3+와 Dy3+ 이온의 함량비와 소결 온도가 결정 입자의 크기와 흡광 스펙트럼에 미치는 결과를 조사하였다.

Removal of Cu impurities on Si substrates using remote H-plasma was investigated. Si substrates were intentionally contaminated by 1ppm ${CuCI}_{2}$, standard chemical solution. To determine the optimal process condition, remote H-plasma cleaning was conducted varying the parameters of rf power, cleaning time and remoteness(the distance between the center of plasma and the surface of Si substrate). After remote H-plasma cleaning was conducted, Si surfaces were analysed by TXRF(total x-ray reflection fluorescence) and AFM(atomic force microscope). The concentration of Cu impurity was reduced by more than a factor of 10 and its RMS roughness was improved by more than 30% after remote H-plasma cleaning. TXRF analysis results show that remote H-plasma cleaning is effective in eliminating Cu impurity on Si surface when it is performed under the optimal process condition. AFM analysis results also verifies that remote H-plasma cleaning makes no damage to the Si surface. The deposition mechanism of Cu impurity may be explained by the redox potential(oxidation-reduction reaction potential) theory. Based on the XPS analysis results we could draw a conclusion that Cu impurities on the Si substrate are removed together with the oxide by a "lift-off" mechanism when the chemical oxide( which forms when Cu ions are adsorbed on the Si surface) is etched off by reactive hydrogen atoms.gen atoms.

Valves are one of the most important components of a pipeline system in a nuclear power plant, and it is important to ensure their structural safety under seismic loads. A crucial aspect of structural safety verification is the seismic qualification, and therefore, an optimal shape design and experimental seismic qualification is necessary in case the configuration of the valve parts needs to be modified and their performance needs to be improved. Recently, intensive numerical analyses have been performed before the experimental verification in order to determine the appropriate design variables that satisfy the performance requirements under seismic loads. In this study, static and dynamic numerical structural analyses of a 200A butterfly valve for a nuclear power plant were performed according to the KEPIC MFA. The result of static analysis considering an equivalent static load under SSE condition gave an applied stress of 135 MPa. In addition, the result of dynamic analysis gave an applied stress of 183 MPa, where the CQC method using response spectrums was taken into account. These values are under the allowable strength of the materials used for manufacturing the butterfly valve, and therefore, its structural safety satisfies the requirements of KEPIC MFA.

Recently, 3D printing technology has been applied to make a concept model and working mockup of an industrial application. On the other hand, this technology has limited applications in industrial products due to the materials and reliability of the 3D printed product. In this study, the components of a full cord switch module are proposed as a case of a 3D printed component that can be used as a substitute for a short period. These are hub-driven and lever lockup components that have the structural characteristics of breaking down frequently in the emergency operating status. To ensure the structural strength for a substitute period, research of structure optimization was performed because 3D printing technology has a limitation in the materials used. After optimizing the structure variables of the hub-driven component, reasonable results can be drawn in that the safety factors of the left and right switching mode are 1.243 (${\Delta}153.67%$) and 3.156 (${\Delta}404.96%$). The lever lockup component has a structural weak point that can break down easily on the lockup-part because of a cantilever shape and bending moment. The rib structure was applied to decrease the deflection. In addition, optimization of the structural variables was performed, showing a safety factor of 7.52(${\Delta}26%$).

In light emitting diode (LED) chip packaging, wire bonding is an important process that connects the LED chip on the lead frame pad with the Au wire and enables electrical operation for the next process. The wire bonding process is divided by two types: thermo compression bonding and ultrasonic bonding. Generally, the wire bonding process consists of three steps: 1st ball bonding that bonds the shape of the ball on the LED chip electrode, looping process that hangs the wire toward another connecting part with a loop shape, and 2nd stitch bonding that forms and bonds to another electrode. This study analyzed the factors affecting the LED die bonding processes to optimize the process capability that bonds a small Zener diode chip on the PLCC (plastic-leaded chip-carrier) LED package frame, and then applied response surface analysis. The design of experiment (DOE) was established considering the five factors, three levels, and four responses by analyzing the factors. As a result, the optimal conditions that meet all the response targets can be derived.

The objectives of the experiment were to examine the effects of extrusion process variables on the yield of extruded ginseng extract and to determine the effect of ratio of extruded ginseng extract and microcrystalline cellulose on characteristics of spheronized granules by cold extrusion-spheronization process. Extrusion process variables observed were feed moisture (15, 22, 29%), die temperature (90 110 13$0^{\circ}C$) and screw speed (150 200, 250 rpm). The results showed that moisture content of dried ginseng significantly affected extraction yield (P<0.05). The less moisture content of the feed resulted in the higher yield of the extract. Moisture content of 15%, screw speed of 250 rpm and die temperature of 13$0^{\circ}C$ gave the highest yield of ginseng extract. Mean extraction yield of extruded ginseng using hot water extraction was greatly improved by extrusion process The extract yield of extruded ginseng was 43.5% which was higher than that of red ginseng (38.3%) and white ginseng (29.0%) produced by traditional process. It was possible to make from the mixture of microcrystalline cellulose (200 g) mixed with different concentration of 200 mL solution (0, 5, 20, 30 40 50 60% of ginseng extract with 59.2% dry solid) by using cold extrusion spheronization. When the concentration of ginseng extract Increased, the granulation yield was improved but friability and compression index were reduced. Ginseng extract such as saponin was completely released from spheronized granules in distilled water within 10 min. It can be concluded that spheroniged granule with ginseng extract could be packed in gelatin capsule since granules Possessed proper physical properties and quick release of saponin.

In case of lipsticks, observer's subjective sensitivity has been the main index to estimate gloss and gloss-lasting capability. The glossmeter has been applied to measure the gloss of make-up cosmetics like nail enamel, however is not effective for lipstick because of uneven sampling. Also gloss-lasting capability couldn't have been measured. In this study, we optimized measurement methods of gloss and gloss-lasting capability of lipsticks, which are highly correlated to subjective sensory tests. We set up the standard methods of gloss measurement by changing application conditions, for example, materials, sizes and application number of times and so on. And we introduced optimizing measurement system, in which shaking speed and temperature were controlled to measure gloss-lasting capability. Applying our methods, the gloss values were very close to the results of sensory tests, and we could express the gloss and gloss-lasting capability of lipsticks numerically Repeatability and reproducibility of our methods were certified by six-sigma statistical tool.
